[Cpt_Blackadder]

I submitted three or four articles which were rejected as being of limited interest. They related to some World War 1 anniversaries such as the centenary of the football match in No-man's land, famous footballers and clubs that fought as well as a Dumfries V.C. winner who lived and worked in Terregles Street (and who was killed in December 1914). I think that the programme editor probably made the correct decision but I know that lots of clubs across the U.K. had special features. Note the Hibs programme for the match v Queens and prior to kick off Hearts and Queens recreated a scene from 1914. I was kindly given a magazine article which showed segments of commemorative programmes from across the land and I was disappointed that we let it pass. However there is a dedicated team working for nothing on the Queens programme and they do a great job as far as I am concerned.
